General Which Action Game Is The Best?

[fanrrior]

When i'm not out with my mates, on the net, at work, or doing school stuff, i'm usually playing on the xbox 360. With that said I have money and currently want to get a fighting game to test my skills. Help a fellow out by answering the poll and talking about a game that isn't diablo

 

[a.c.e]

I'd go Tekken. but only because I use to play it all the time.

played a little DOA and Soul Calibre. I could never get use to Mortal Combat and the other two I dont play. Another is Street Fighter. Which one? hell knows theres too many of them out at the moment. I would look at the more recent version of a game and work my way backwards looking at how they play before settling on a title.

I dont play them any more. Only because I dont have the pad with the six buttons and joy stick to play these games properly.

MK for suuuure. Only because I was in love with that game on the snes (that was a console that was around before you were born fanrrior )

Wait, so its mortal kombat, not mortal combat?

Hmm, you can't go wrong with Street Fighter, or go one further Street Fighter x Tekken - if you're looking for a fighting game.

Edit: Oh I forgot to mention I know a pretty good place to buy games (PS3/xbox/PC) online, and really cheap too, plus free postage but I'm not to sure If I'm allowed to post the site here ?

Mortal Kombat on the ol' (well old for me, probably futuristic for all of you old buggers) Mega Drive was my introduction to action games, so I'll go with that. I probably spent the most time playing Tekken though.

I hear diablo 3 is a pretty good action game

Red Dead Redemption is one of the best games I've played.

Killin the hookers was fun..tying them up and putting them on the train tracks was a fav

 

[krs_64]

I never really got into Red dead Redemption, actually all rock star games for that matter.. Just too repetitive for my liking.

Going about my business and then have a bear jump on my back and maul me to death... good times.

Yip that's the one, and yip they sure are. Nzgameshop is basically a UK reseller hence the really cheap prices and a bit of a wait on delivery (generally a week, which is pretty quick considering). But yea, can't really complain when postage is free,

I've ordered quite a bit from there, love there prices, and is the real deal. Another cool thing is you get player points for every purchase, I've managed to build mine up to 16,750 player points as of now. They also randomly give out player points for being a member and shit.

Anyone looking forward to the following titles? Bioshock Infinite, GTR3 and Brothers in Arms furious 4?

What do you do with them? Do they earn you discounts?

Yea, you trade them in for money that you can use on your next purchase. 10k points is about about 10 bucks, the higher you build you points the bigger the discount.
